PRR Doodlebug 4668 - Pennsylvania RR
Title:  PRR Doodlebug 4668 - Pennsylvania RR
Description:  Nice action shot of the 1930 Brill/Pullman built Pennsylvania RR doodlebug #4668 with Pullman coach car #1644 speeding along an unidentified countryside. It appears that this doodlbug has survived the PRR/PC/Amtrak upheaval. It was at one time on the Illinois Rwy Museum roster in Union, IL Now it appears that it was owned by John Kunzie who has it stored in the Escanaba & Lake Superior enginehouse in Michigan. Would be great to see this unit restored for rail fans to enjoy. No location or photographer lsited for the photo.
